Apply For The USERN Prize, Win Cash, And Get A Keynote Talk In Astana

Science 2.0 - May 24 2026 - 10:05
Nowadays it has become exceedingly hard to distinguish legitimate academic endeavours from scam in my mailbox. Not even AI filters can sort stuff out properly: my inbox often contains invitations to fake conferences, or to publish with non-existing journals, while my spam folder at times contains honest invitations of academic value.
I could touch the reality of the problem a few months ago, when I was invited to an AI conference in Singapore. I was about to trash the email, when something in the name of the sender rang a bell. Upon checking, it turned out that he was a Nobel prize winner in Physics! Needless to say, I was happy to accept the invitation, and indeed in two weeks I will travel to Singapore to deliver my talk at AI4X.

A Record Of Past Activities

Science 2.0 - May 24 2026 - 06:05
Every now and then, for one reason or another, an academic will have to update one's own CV. This is a chore in general - once you get tenure, why should you care to keep a detailed record of your past activities? - but it also carries some benefits. In fact, by sifting through the data (hard disk folders containing talks, large databases of publications, mailbox) you can get a bird's eye view of where your time has gone, and draw inspiration for future rationalization of your agenda.

Why Antarctic Sea Ice Stopped Growing In 2015

Science 2.0 - May 21 2026 - 10:05
Though numerical models and popular films like An Inconvenient Truth projected Arctic ice collapse due to global warming and then climate change, the reverse was true in the real world. Ice expanded. That changed in 2015 and a new model estimates why. The authors say the Southern Ocean which surrounds Antarctica has gotten warmer, bringing salty water from the deep up to the surface.

Those water changes led to record-breaking lows in 2023, which could destabilize the world’s ocean current systems, and it will be due to three changes.

In 2013, they write stronger winds led to salty Circumpolar Deep Water getting closer to the surface.
